New business owner lacks a system to track remote coders' productivity without micromanaging.
Existing tools are either too lightweight (chat, kanban boards) or too intrusive (screen recording), lacking a balanced approach that tracks hours and progress without micromanaging.

App Concept
CodePulse Manager
A remote developer productivity platform that combines time tracking, milestone-based progress, and lightweight check-ins. It uses work logs and automated milestone updates to give owners visibility without constant supervision. Unlike screen recording, it respects developer privacy while ensuring billable hours are productive.
Key Features
- Automatic time tracking with activity classification (coding, meeting, away)
- Milestone-based progress reports (e.g., % completion of tasks in Trello/Jira)
- Daily or weekly summary of work output via chat or email
- Client-facing dashboard with billable vs. non-billable time breakdown
Target Users: Small business owners and startup founders hiring remote freelance or part-time developers
Revenue Model: $15/mo per developer tracked, with a free tier for up to 2 developers
